Shoko-tan’s Final Xbox 360 Betrayal

shoko-tan.jpg

Xbox 360 fans lusting after ota-idol Shoko-tan have been dealt another grievous blow with the news that she gave away a number of Xbox 360 games, without even bothering to play them.

shokonakagawagiveaway.jpg

“I’ll giving away a set of Xbox 360 games I haven’t played yet,” according Shoko-tan in her blog.

Among the titles were Lost Odyssey, Fable II, Gears of War, Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise, Forza 2 and Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts. Notable by its absence is her prized beta copy of Tales of Vesperia…

Ironically, the fan that won the set does not even own an Xbox according to Shoko-tan.

Doubtless he would never even consider playing them anyway, as to an otaku such hallowed relics demand reverential ensconcement in some sort of reliquary, or at least lucrative disposal by way of Yahoo! Auctions…

    The day Micro$hit releases an X360 error free, is the day I will buy one... Until then, no buy. I'm sticking to my PS3.

    My brothers have had 2 RROD, a friend had 3, another had 1 and several 360s I've seen in stores for display had either a RROD or the E64, if I remember correctly.

    How's that for unreliable?

    The real question im interested in is, who is Shoko-tan and why should I care? What has she done for the 360 that makes this a "betrayal"?

    Last time checked the 360 was not that popular in Japan anyway, even though its more popular than the original X-box.

    Honestly this whole console war is getting old. I have a 360 and have the option of getting a PS3 if I wanted to. And my parents have a Wii that I can play if I ever get that bored. But like iv said in other topics, it boils down to what games you like to play.

    No no, im an anime fan, sir. Im just a gamer first and an anime fan second. And as a gamer i have no biest opinion towards any of the consoles. Its simple, if a game kicks ass I play it, regardless of what console it maybe on.

    And the fact that some Japanese idol may or may not play one of the consoles dose not feel me with rage. I could care less.

    It's because the Xbox 360 is the console of LOLSHOOTERS and the same damn EASPORTS game you bought ten years ago, which is popular among the many gun-toting hillbillies and beer-bong-chugging frat fags throughout the country. Granted, there are a few shining gems (Eternal Sonata, Fable II...I'm sure there's more), but the rest of the heap, regardless of how good they might be, is made almost entirely of shooters and the odd racing/sports game that isn't made by EA.

    Zeebo isn't even on the same level of those consoles, and with the extensive list of crappy titles I doubt they are hoping a lot from the international market, let alone japanese...
    Actually, it'll be hard enough for Zeebo to have success in the brazilian market.

    But back to the 360, yeah, it's what ALL console companies to. Gather exclusive titles to grab hold on a share of the market.
    360 will NEVER be over in Japan as long as they have im@s. [/thread]

    It's the Otaku's console of choice because MS paid for the exclusives, just to get the 360 moving in Japan in the first place. JRPGs move consoles... cue DQ9 and the DS. That's something they learned after Xbox1.

    An Otaku would sacrifice health and cup o noodles money just to buy their favorite galgame, regardless of the platform.

    Here's a message to the Brazilian manufacturer of the craptactular console Zeebo: if ever you want to push units in Japan, get some developers to make exclusive visual novels for it. The otaku will 100% buy it if it's content they love.

    I think the matter of questioning here is not the size of his member, but the fact that he would opt to fornicate with a CD that was contained within an unused copy of a game owned by an idol. Not only does it not resemble the idol in any physical or mental form, but it is simply imhumane. It'd probably be better to fap to a picture of Shoko-tan than do the CD.

    You people that are PS3 Fanboys are assholes, I own all 3 next gen consoles and they all have their own perks and faults. PS3 even has its, one it's a sucky console for online play, Xbox 360 sucks for stand alone game play. PS3 is over priced and they're losing tons of a money on the system, Xbox 360 not so much, so I wish people in here would quit bitching about what console is better. They're all good for their own. Even the Wii, it's a family console, not made to compete with PS3 or 360 and it's killing both in the market. So instead of whining about the Xbox 360 all the time maybe you should take time and bitch about Super Fucking Mario for a change.
